From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Mon Nov 06 2017 - 20:02:26 EST


3.16.50-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Konrad Zapalowicz <bergo.torino@xxxxxxxxx>

commit ea6e9dea2e72a7abd146a2c5bab726b27f34b36c upstream.

This comit fixes the following sparse warnign:

drivers/staging/dgnc/dgnc_tty.c:572:1:
warning: the frame size of 1060 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes
[-Wframe-larger-than=]

This was caused by having buffer as an automatic variable. This commit
moves it from the stack to the heap.
